I'll tell you from personal experience that kiting in the Sierra's can be fun, however, if you don't live there, it's hard to score. That being said, all of my snowkite sessions last year took place in Utah, as they will this year as well.

Jeff Kafka, with Wind OVer Water Kiteboarding is running his second year of Skyline Snowkite trips in Utah. They run from Dec. through March. Check them out at WowKite Snow

I have found that you can actually be snowkiting in Utah in less time from SF than heading to the Sierras...no joke.

Well, if you want to hook up give me a call,,, we now have a pretty good "phone chain" going so usuially we can get a few kiters together with short notice if it looks like it will blow plus I need all the support I can get as I have never snow kited.
